Verizon Business will be consolidating the global communications of the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs onto one IP network. The fully-managed Verizon Private IP solution will provide the Danish government with a secure and centralized communication infrastructure that connects employees around the globe. That is expected to be more cost-efficient for the government.
The system will link the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs in 95 countries (that’s about 115 outposts).
“The Ministry of Foreign Affairs makes its living by gathering and exchanging knowledge from all parts of the world, with our communications network acting as one of the ministry’s nervous systems. Our IT department has been exploring ways of optimizing our use of IT and communications technologies to ensure we effectively support our activities around the globe. By opting for a fully managed solution from Verizon Business, we are able to focus our efforts on our global operations, safe in the knowledge that our communications are in secure hands,” said Lars Steen Nielsen, IT director, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The consolidation will allow the Danish Ministry to deploy VoIP, on-demand video conferencing and other IP-based applications.
“For government agencies, security and quality are as important as speed when it comes to communications infrastructure. Our solution for the Danish Ministry shows how Verizon Business’ global reach, advanced IP networking capabilities and innovative technology solutions combine to meet the ministry’s evolving needs all over the world. From Brussels to Baghdad, or Copenhagen to Cairo, Verizon Business is committed to helping the ministry and all the ministry’s clients achieve their mission-critical goals in an increasingly global world,” said Frank Enevoldsen, country manager, Verizon Business Denmark.
